| - | The small town of Weidefurt lies on the banks of the river Birkett, one of the many minor tributaries of the Great river. It marks the crossing of the main road from Leasowe to Klien-hoysee. The road after crossing the small river slowly climbs out of the town first passing through a marshy area of small streams and water meadows. The plain to the south of the town is dominated by a low ridge marking the Birkett's watershed. | + | The small town of Weidefurt lies on the banks of the river Birkett, one of the many minor tributaries of the Grand River.

| It was here on the ridge that Andreus Raparger sat on his horse feeling reasonably happy. The march from Leasowe landing had been without incident and he had reached the small town of Weidefurt on the main Leasowe to Klien-hoysee road and drawn up most of his troops along the small river on which Weidefurt stood, preventing a Hoysee advance. With reports that Klien-hoysee was held by just a small garrison of no more than a battalion, he had dispatched two battalions of infantry along the road to the port. Once the Hoysee advance had been slowed if not stopped he planned to send more troops. | It was here on the ridge that Andreus Raparger sat on his horse feeling reasonably happy.
